Question
What is Ni-NTA, and why and who would someone recharge it?  Oh, I already tried finding this info. on google.

Answer
I need to know the context.  Ni-NTA to me is a chelated nickel compound.  A Na-NTA ion exchange material may be available that removes Ni from aqueous solution.  To regenerate (recharge) the material, it would be treated with NaCl to release the Ni and give the original material.

Again, without the context,this is a guess.
